The index pages... ugh.  Yes, they're a pain.  I have added special code to them so that the next time they are spidered by the search engines, they will be removed from their databases.

Subject: [FWDLK] Easily Searching Old FWDLK Postings

Hi All!

In an effort to CONVENIENTLY search old Forward Look mail indexes, I have successfully used the program Web Ferret search engine. It searches up to 12 other engines simultaneously. It is available free at: http://www.zdnet.com/ferret/index.html

 

When searching I use the "All Keywords" selection and ALWAYS input "[FWDLK]" and then use my search word(s) (e.g., door lock). Instead of getting 'Mail Indexes' pages like with other search engines, I get the individual 'Thread' which gets me to the heart of what I'm looking for.

 

Web Ferret is great, I use it all the time.

 

Hoping it helps,

Floyd
